[Quality-2][High] Enforce backward-compatible OpenAPI changes in CI #1190

Description

@greatest0fallt1me

Summary

Implement Enforce backward-compatible OpenAPI changes in CI as a production-ready improvement in this repository.

Why this matters

Consumers need a stable contract for success, validation failures, compatibility, and operational errors.

Scope

Trace the affected public entry point through persistence, external dependencies, and user/operator-visible output. Implement Enforce backward-compatible OpenAPI changes in CI without weakening existing authorization, correctness, compatibility, or CI safeguards.

Priority

High

Acceptance criteria

  • Request and response schemas are explicit and consistent with runtime behavior.
  • Validation and errors use stable codes, bounded details, and documented status semantics.
  • Compatible callers continue to work and incompatible changes are deliberately rejected or versioned.
  • Contract tests cover success, validation, authorization, failure, and boundary responses.

Validation

The PR must include focused regression coverage for this issue, including:

  • Request and response schemas are explicit and consistent with runtime behavior.
  • Validation and errors use stable codes, bounded details, and documented status semantics.
  • Compatible callers continue to work and incompatible changes are deliberately rejected or versioned.

Run the repository’s standard formatting, lint, build, and test commands where applicable, and report unrelated pre-existing failures separately.

Non-goals

  • Typo-only, formatting-only, or documentation-only changes.
  • Unrelated refactors, dependency upgrades, or broad redesigns.
  • Weakening security, authorization, CI, validation, or production safeguards.
  • Changing public behavior outside this issue’s scope.

Contributor application

Before implementation, comment with relevant experience, a concise implementation approach, expected files or modules, and an estimate for opening the first PR. Wait for maintainer assignment before coding.

PR requirements

Use a feature branch and include Closes #<issue-number>. The PR must address every acceptance criterion, link each criterion to code and tests, explain security and failure-mode handling, include meaningful regression coverage, preserve compatibility, and report validation results.

Quality review

This is a substantive engineering issue. Review will consider correctness, security, failure handling, test quality, scope discipline, and maintainability.
